We'll miss you Olaf - Gary Gygax passes on :(

[purpledrake]

Definitely the geek inside just cried a little when I heard that Gary Gygax died recently. I met him a couple times at GenCon - nice guy - and though the whole background is a contentious story itself, there were definitely many nights of Mountain Dew and Cheetos that wouldn't have been possible without him

I hope the word Xagyg appears on the tombstone in some fashion ... who WERE the nine demigods imprisoned under castle Greyhawk anyhow?

The Onion handled it with their usual grace and decorum:

My favorite has to be "It's rumored he dropped epic lootz."
